NASCAR CANADIAN TIRE SERIES MOSPORT INTERNATIONAL RACEWAY NEWS AND NOTES

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (June
14, 2007) -- With one race under their collective belt, NASCAR
Canadian Tire Series presented by Sirius Satellite Radio drivers and
teams are geared up for the second race this season. This time, however,
the task includes a few right-hand turns as they tackle the road course
at Mosport International Raceway.

THE TRACK: The 10-turn, 2.459-mile road course at Mosport International
Raceway, located just north of Bowmanville, Ontario, opened in 1961. In
2000, the track was resurfaced and widened to 40 feet. Over the years,
Mosport has hosted the former CASCAR Super Series, as well as Formula 1
and IndyCar events.

THE EVENT: The Dickies 200 presented by Canadian Shield Anticrime is
scheduled for a 2:15 p.m. ET start on Sunday, June 17, but a full weekend
of racing action is planned at Mosport. Joining the NASCAR Canadian Tire
Series for this extravaganza is the Grand-Am KONI Challenge. The Cup
Lites Racing Series will also be on hand.

DICKIES AND NASCAR: Dickies, the leading global workwear brand and title
sponsor of this weekend's Canadian Tire Series event, has been
involved with NASCAR for over six years. This November will be the third
running of the Dickies 500 in the NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series at Texas Motor
Speedway.

"We are excited to be working with Mosport and the NASCAR Canadian
Tire Series," said Bill McFarlane of Williamson-Dickie Canada
Company. "We have a strong partnership with (Canadian Tire) Series
driver Dave Whitlock, sponsoring his No. 39 Dickies Dodge Charger, and we
think this is another great way to bring racing excitement to
NASCAR's Canadian fans."

WHY 200?: It's the Dickies 200 presented by Canadian Shield
covering 124.3 miles, but the event does cover 200 kilometers.

FOUR ON THE FLOOR: Canada's Miguel Duhamel, AMA Super Bikes driver,
will drive a four-wheeled vehicle in a NASCAR event prepared by Dave
Jacombs, who also fields Andrew Ranger's No. 27 Wal-Mart/Tide Ford
team. Duhamel, who owns the records for most wins and championships in
the Super Bikes Series, is entered in this event. He also has his sights
set on the Canadian debut of the NASCAR Busch Series at Montreal's
Circuit Gilles Villeneuve on August 4.

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY: Brothers Jeff and Jim Lapcevich want to give
their father, Joe Lapcevich, a very special Father's Day present at
Mosport this weekend in their Tim Hortons/EMCEA Transport Chevrolets.

"It's been a goal of ours to stand on the winner's
podium together, and it has been close the last two years. It's
been a Mosport Father's Day present we've planned for a
while," said Jim. "Maybe this will be our year."

FATHER'S DAY FOR THE FANS: Fans can give dad a real Mosport VIP
experience, tickets to the Grand Prix Club. The Grand Prix Club includes
a three-day admission and a Sunday hospitality event that includes a
trackside lunch overlooking the start-finish line and Turn One.

Anticrime can be obtained by calling Mosport International Raceway at
